Truck Races in June

The kids came home on Thursday June 3 and then my last day of school with kids was Friday June 4th. So that night we took Riley to the truck races. He loves cars and races, so he was really excited about heading out to the Texas Motor Speedway. We left Alex at home with Grandma Karyn and Papaw Richard and headed to the track. We hadn't bought tickets ahead of time, but we knew the track wouldn't be that crowded. Boy, were we surprised when we were standing in line to get tickets and a man walked up to us and asked us how many tickets we needed. We answered 3 and he handed us 3 free tickets. Did I mention how much I love NASCAR fans????

Then it was finally time for the race to begin. The truck races are nice to take Riley to because they are not quite as loud and way shorter.

Still toward the end of the race, he began asking if we could go home now. What can you expect from an almost 5 year old? Then he told us next time we could just leave him at home with Alex. I'll bet next time we get ready to head to the track without him, he will change his tune!
